biography
Braschel belongs to the Danube Swabians and fled with his family from the Soviet Army to Graz , where he went to school and studied civil engineering. Bernhard Baule , Christian Veder and Konrad Sattler were among his teachers there . After graduating in 1967, he went to the universities in Munich and Stuttgart. Together with colleagues (Dietrich, Netzel) he founded the Engineering Community for Construction (IGB) in Stuttgart before setting up his own engineering office. In 1975 he founded the planning and real estate company IFB Dr. Braschel AG in Stuttgart. His early projects included the Jamjoon Commercial Center in Jeddah , the strength calculations in the primary circuit of nuclear power plants and the rocket engine test bed for the Ariane 5 . Later, among other things, the conversion of the former Carl Zeiss main plant in Jena into a service center, the Erfurt exhibition center , the Treptowers office tower of Allianz, the BMW automobile factory in Leipzig and the Infineon DRAM factory in Dresden . In Stuttgart, he also submitted designs for the Stuttgart 21 train station (which, however, did not make any progress in the competition) and for the Trump Tower , a 220 m high-rise on the Pragsattel, which caused considerable discussions in Stuttgart from 2000 to 2003, but not was realized. He advocated integrated (holistic) interdisciplinary construction planning between architects, civil engineers (structural engineers), TGA and others. In Weimar he published a “second Bauhaus manifesto” on this.
In 1979 he received his doctorate in Graz ( A simple approximation method for solving stability and tension problems in beams made of non-elastic materials ). From 1996 he was a full professor (successor to Erhard Hampe ) at the Bauhaus University Weimar . There he headed the Institute for Planning of Engineering Structures. Because of the double workload in his engineering office, he resigned, but remained an honorary professor.
2003 Braschel got the Staufer Medal of Baden-Wuerttemberg and the Distinguished Service Cross of the Order of Merit of the Federal Republic of Germany. From 1997 he headed the service committee of the Stuttgart Chamber of Industry and Commerce and became deputy chairman in 2001.
